Training Hearts, Teaching Minds guides families through the questions and answers in The Westminster Shorter Catechism in Modern English. Recognizing this deficit, Starr Meade has provided Christian parents and churches with a tool for imparting doctrinal instruction to their children. ![]() Today, however, the church focuses on teaching Bible stories, which are often used to moralize children and equip them to win Bible trivia contests! In them, children had a concise handbook of important truths they could call upon at any time in confidence. Does your child know the key biblical teachings about God the Father, the Lord Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit? What about salvation, Scripture, and the sacraments? Can he or she recite the Ten Commandments and the Lord's Prayer?Ĭatechisms were once used as instructional guides to help children memorize basic Christian doctrines. ![]()
